Fashion's New Address - India

Indian/Bollywood style is taking the Western Fashion by a storm.
.
Hermes took its Spring/Summer 2008 Collection's inspiration from India. And, now, post-Slumdog Millionaire Bollywood fashion is Hollywood's biggest trend.


Hollywood babes are loving the Indian fashion. In 2008, Pussycat Dolls donned black sarees at NYC Fashion Week's hottest event Fashion Rocks.

.
Britney Spears also joined the Bollywood Bandwagon with her Bollywood inspired dress at her Circus Tour in New Orleans (March 3rd). Nicole Scherzinger seems to be really awed by the Bollywood fashion. She particularly loves wearing colourful bindis and dupattas. She was seen wearing Indian-ish outfit at multiple occassions. She wore an Indian dupatta with jeans and had an Indian bindi on her forehead at Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

Bright and rich colors combined with fabulous fabrics like brocade, jacquard, chiffon, and amazing beading and metallic embroidery.

Smart Dressing - Look Taller with Nude Shoes

Leg Lengthening Shoes - nude.

Elongate your legs by wearing skin tone or nude coloured shoes. A shoe that closely matches your skin tone helps elongate your petite legs, making you appear taller.

Nude simply refers to shoes that matches your skin tone.




Ankle Strap Shoes cut off your ankles, cutting off your length, so avoid them. Instead wear shoes that match your skin tone - a pair of nude shoes elongates your legs making you look taller and leaner.

You need not restrict your outfit to just light colours. The best part is, you can team your high heeled nude shoes with all the colours - blacks, whites, bright colours.

Petite celebrities, like Reese Witherspoon, Victoria Beckham, wear nude shoes (even to the red carpet events) as it creates an illusion of longer legs, making them look taller and their legs leaner.



(Nicole certainly is not petite, but she did pick nude shoes, probably to look leaner)
.
Our Picks:
(image on top)
1. Banana Republic 'Rocio' for $160
2. Bertie Bow Back Court Shoes for £74
3. ASOS Cross Front Sandals for £29
4. Karen Millen Satin Peep Toe Shoes for £135

.
Nude looks great in various shoe styles like peep toes, platforms, mary janes, pointed toed pumps or courts.

Go get yourself a pair, what more could a girl ask for in a shoe?
